Witness the harrowing aftermath of a shark attack off Florida's east coast as captured by Horizon Channel's latest footage. In a chilling incident, a boater fell victim to a sudden shark assault, resulting in a severe bite to his right arm, causing significant blood loss. Thanks to the swift response of Nassau County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit, who applied a life-saving tourniquet and swiftly transported the victim to safety, the injured man was airlifted to a nearby hospital where he is now in critical condition but expected to recover.

This incident highlights the ongoing risks faced by beachgoers and boaters alike during Florida's peak shark activity season, spanning from April to October. Despite these dangers, shark encounters remain rare, with statistics showing humans are more likely to be struck by lightning than bitten by a shark in Florida. Experts attribute recent incidents to increased human activity rather than changes in shark behavior.
